Boris Johnson names baby after doctors who treated him

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has revealed “contingency plans” were made while he was seriously ill in hospital with coronavirus.

In an interview with the Sun on Sunday, he says he was given “litres and litres of oxygen” to keep him alive.

He says during a week in London’s St Thomas’ Hospital, with three nights in intensive care, he kept asking himself: “How am I going to get out of this?”

Earlier, his fiancee, Carrie Symonds, revealed they had named their baby boy Wilfred Lawrie Nicholas Johnson.

The names are a tribute to their grandfathers and two doctors who treated Mr Johnson while he was in hospital with coronavirus, Ms Symonds wrote in an Instagram post.

She posted a picture of herself with the baby, who was born on Wednesday.

The birth came just weeks after Mr Johnson’s discharge from intensive care.
